This post has tons of pics! We had so much fun with Zoey. It's been awhile since I've had a little one to chase around and I'll admit that I am tired! I wasn't sure how it would go with Zoey, since we don't get to see her that often. She stayed 5 nights and I'm sure she didn't really know what to think about that, being away from home for so long. But, she did really well.
She is so hilarious! She loves to laugh and is saying so many words and loves to repeat what you say. She is really smart and was already learning to say my name!
There was one night that she woke up at 3:30am and didn't really want to go back to sleep. Morgan got her and put her in our bed, but I think she just tossed and turned and then was up for good at 6:15. That morning was rough on me because I think I got 2 hours of sleep. And Zoey was cranky too. But, after her nap, we were back on track! My MIL came over that day and she ended up holding her while she took her nap and I got a shower. That night (last night), I went to my room around 6:30 just to lay down for a minute and ended up taking a nap for an hour and a half!
The first night, she was playing peek-a-boo with me =)

I see you!!

The next day (Wednesday), we went to the Dollar Store and got her a ball to play with.

She loves her pink "bank-ket".

One of her favorite things was to look outside to see what Hannah was doing. She would just laugh and laugh.

She loved Bella too. She loved to pet her and try and say her name.

After I moved the couch, I got this duster out because it was dusty underneath. Zoey was "helping" me. :D

It wasn't until Thursday, that I had the brilliant idea to move the couch. Why did I move it? Because, she kept doing this:

She would get to the stairs and just sit on the bottom step.

I got this brilliant idea to just push the couch in front of the entryway. It made it so much easier. Wish I had thought of it on Wednesday. LOL!

Zoey kept walking around like, what just happened here? Then, she got down to see if she could just squeeze underneath. Ha!

She loves to clean. I gave her a paper towel and she was dusting. :D If her milk would drip on the floor, we'd sing, "Clean up, clean up, everybody clean up" and she would wipe it up. My girls maybe could learn a lesson from her?!

She liked this animal book that Lily has too.

Crazy static hair.

She's so sweet. I knew she was going to be so excited to see her Mommy and Daddy and I was surprised she came back to me and gave me a hug and laid her head on my shoulder. I told her I loved her and would miss her. Earlier today, I went to finish shopping for Lily's birthday and I got her this Elmo toy. She loves Elmo and this one talks when his mouth opens and she carried him around most of the day. She kept saying, "Elmo!"

Lily came down with a fever and congestion yesterday and Zoey had a runny nose the whole time she was here, so I hope they both get better!

I got this Pooh Bear toy out and we pulled her around on it. We didn't want to have to bend over the whole time (that really hurts your thighs!), so we put a scarf around it and pulled her and just kept our hand on her back so she wouldn't fall. She really liked that.

It seemed like we were just really getting into our groove today and it was time for her to go home. The girls were already saying they missed her tonight after she left. Luckily, we will see her next weekend at Lily's Birthday party!
I'm so glad we have Zoey now and it will be lots of fun to see these girls grow up together. One day, we will get to have big girl sleepovers! Yay!

she is adorable and so funny that you had to move the couch! :) that was a great idea!
The pictures of Zoey were fun...and they told your story of your time with her. (:>)
We have stairs too and when little ones come I usually take them downstairs and then blok the stairs by sitting there so they can't climb up. Cuz it can get tiring trying to keep them safe! (:>)
I hope Lily is better now...and that Zoey's sniffles didn't get worse.
That was so nice of you to watch Zoey for them, and I know your girls loved it!
You rest up now!
Luv Ya!
Oh my gosh, she is adorable! I love her red hair and her chubby cheeks. Glad you guys had a great time! =)
It looks like you had so much fun. I had my cousin, Drea, who is 1 for three days and I know how exhausted you felt. Once you have big kids that take care of themselves a little one makes you feel like you have been through a war. I am glad you had a great week. She is adorable!
What a precious little girl! she sure does love to clean! Why aren't my girls like that?! Sounds like y'all had a great time$ I know they are all going to have a blast growing up together!
See! A fourth one would be a breeze!! LOL!
She is so cute. I love her red hair! Isn't it annoying that you come up with solutions in the middle of the visit???? Sometimes I wish I would have had my brilliant idea when Bella was 18 months old - instead of realizing something when Scout was 18 months old. Couches are good for blocking doorways :o)
She is so cute and you can send her to my house to clean any time. I hate to dust. LOL
So glad you had a good time.
I hope that they both feel better soon.
Yea! What a great aunt you are! I am sure Miss Zoey had a blast!!
Looks like you guys had a ton of fun! Zoey is such a cutie and is very blessed to have an awesome aunt like you! Sleepovers will be so much fun when the girls get older for sure!
Yep, start em young on the cleaning! lol
